Photos from Halloween Hypnotic Experience Show

Last month I have the privilege of performing "Hypnotic Experience" at the Bradley Farm Haunted House.  It's a wonderful Halloween-inspired community event in Northern Virginia that benefits Herndon-Reston FISH, a charitable organize that provides support to families in crisis.

Here is a link to a recap of the Bradley Farm performances, which presented a couple of interesting challenges.

Included below are a couple of photos from the shows that Bradley Farm Haunted House just posted on its Facebook page.  I thought I'd share with a caption to better illustrate what the photo depicts.

My pre-talk defines hypnosis, sets expectations for volunteers and allows me to weave in a few entertaining anecdotes.

"Magnetic fingers" is a suggestability test and helps volunteers focus.

Sleep suggestion instantly brings volunteers back to a deep level of relaxation.

Like most entertainment disciplines, the world of comedy is dominated by the elite. 

Whether its music, movies, art or dance, the top two percent score the best gigs and pocket the big paydays.  Although talented, the rest tend to seek a state of realistic happiness.

That's where I am -- ecstatic about the "Hypnotic Experience" show I've developed and realistic about where it will take me.

I have a full-time consulting job which pays the mortgage and keeps my family well fed.  As a result, my work in hypnosis for well-being, health and entertainment has become a truly wonderful and empowering source of fulfillment.

This past Thursday, Hypnotic Experience took me to the Sheraton Reston in Northern Virginia for a presentation to the Welcome Club of Northern Virginia.  As the featured speaker at the group's monthly luncheon, I shared the power of positive visualization to a group of more than 75 women.

Here are a few photos from the event...

I include the heavy/light hand test in "Hypnotic Experience" to demonstrate the power of visualization.

Yes...you too can be hypnotized, if you want to be.  All of hypnosis is self-hypnosis.

The pre-talk is an important part of the "Hypnotic Experience" show.  I explain hypnosis and clear up misconceptions.
